Mason Jar Competition

During the vintage event, Salvage, there was also a mason jar competition. You could do anything you wanted, as long as a mason jar was incorporated. I decided to do my own take on potpourri and how to display it. I found everything in or around my home--everything but the mason jar. I only had jars without lids, so I purchased that one new.  Once everything was painted I soaked all the bits and pieces in an apple cinnamon scent and punched holes in the top of the lid.  

I unfortunately didn't come home with a ribbon [I wish I had made a sign so people knew to smell it], but I'm still really happy with it and it's proudly displayed in my room now. :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What I Wore: Salvage

This past weekend Amanda and I went and checked out Salvage. It was full of vintage awesomeness and I got to see some friends I hadn't seen in a few months, so it was a pretty great day all around.

That last picture...with the dumbfounded face? Yeah, that's because right as the timer was going off I noticed one of our neighbors at the top of the hill watching me.  awkwaaaaaaaaard.
